Charles
AP Calculus AB Tutor • +25 Subjects
I am a junior Mechanical Engineering major at Yale, and I hope to become a Naval Aviator after college. I am also a varsity sailor, and enjoy playing music with friends when I can get some free time. I have been tutoring my fellow students throughout my entire academic career, and I would best describe my tutoring style as one that adapts to each students' needs. For example, I have always tried to frame questions in a different way so that the student can better understand the question. Some students need visual representations of numbers and systems to understand them, and others benefit more by understanding the concepts behind each formula. I prefer to tutor in math and physics, and especially with real world application problems. I hope to help students improve their standardized test scores and their understanding of the math and sciences so that they can achieve their academic goals! Hobbies: art, books, running, reading, music, writing
Tony
Calculus Tutor • +28 Subjects
I am a recent graduate of Yale University and incoming first year medical student at Columbia University. Originally from the DC area, I have always had a passion for science and medicine and pursued a degree in Biology while at Yale. During the 2008-2009 academic year, I tutored science, math, English, history, and Mandarin Chinese part-time with a DC-based tutoring company. At Yale, I worked as a freshman counselor to provide academic and career advice to incoming freshmen. I have taken both SAT and MCAT test prep classes and am familiar with both tests as well as the preparation necessary to score well. My personal career goals include attending medical school to pursue either immunology/infectious diseases or psych/neurology, teaching biology at the university level, and working in public/global health with either the CDC or the WHO.
Samuel
AP Calculus AB Tutor • +29 Subjects
I am a freshman at Caltech majoring in Applied and Computational Mathematics. My favorite subject to tutor is math because I find it very rewarding to simplify complex topics to aid in understanding. I have lots of tutoring experience. In high school, I ran and taught an SAT prep class and was vice president of my school's NHS chapter where I ran our tutoring program, and I, myself, tutored. I also was a teaching assistant in the summer of 2020 for a class in discrete mathematics through a program called PACT (Program in Algorithmic and Combinatorial Thinking). I love learning and hope to make the process enjoyable for you!

Frequently Asked Questions
Connecticut Bar Exam test-takers most commonly struggle with Evidence, Civil Procedure, and Connecticut-specific substantive law topics like Connecticut family law and real property rules that differ from the Model Rules. Many candidates also find the Connecticut Constitutional Law section challenging because it requires understanding how Connecticut courts have interpreted state constitutional protections differently than federal precedent. Personalized instruction helps by targeting these weak areas with focused practice and explaining the Connecticut-specific nuances that generic bar prep materials often overlook.
Connecticut Bar Exam essays require not just legal knowledge but precise application of Connecticut statutes and case law within tight time constraints. A tutor can teach you the specific essay-writing framework Connecticut graders expect, help you identify which Connecticut law applies quickly, and provide targeted feedback on your written analysis. Through repeated practice essays with personalized review, you'll develop the pattern recognition skills needed to score higher on Connecticut's fact-pattern questions, where missing a subtle Connecticut-specific rule can cost significant points.
The Connecticut Bar Exam's MBE section tests national law, but Connecticut test-takers often underestimate how state-specific nuances appear in the questions. A tutor can help you distinguish between national rules and Connecticut exceptions, develop efficient time management for the 200-question section, and use targeted practice testing to identify whether your gaps are conceptual or strategy-based. Many successful test-takers benefit from drilling high-difficulty MBE questions alongside Connecticut-specific essay practice to build the dual competency the exam requires.
An excellent Connecticut Bar Exam tutor should be licensed to practice in Connecticut or have deep familiarity with Connecticut's substantive law, court rules, and bar exam format. They should have recent bar exam experience, understand the specific Connecticut law sections that appear on the exam, and ideally have a track record helping students master Connecticut-specific topics like Connecticut family law statutes and Connecticut real property rules. Look for tutors who can explain not just the rules but the reasoning behind Connecticut courts' interpretations, which helps you apply law to novel fact patterns on test day.
Connecticut Bar Exam success depends heavily on allocating time wisely across essays, the MBE, and Connecticut-specific sections. A tutor can analyze your practice test performance to identify whether you're spending too long on certain question types, help you develop a personalized pacing strategy based on your strengths, and teach you how to quickly recognize which Connecticut law applies so you don't waste time on irrelevant rules. Through timed practice sessions with real feedback, you'll build the automaticity needed to manage the exam's compressed timeline.
Measurable improvement typically appears within 4-6 weeks of focused tutoring, with most students seeing 10-15 point increases on full-length practice exams as they master Connecticut-specific content and refine their essay-writing approach. The biggest gains come from targeted work on your lowest-performing areas—whether that's Evidence application, Connecticut procedure rules, or time management—combined with consistent practice testing. Students who work with a tutor often report greater confidence identifying Connecticut law issues quickly and more consistent scoring across multiple practice exams, which are strong predictors of improved bar exam performance.
The answer depends on your diagnostic performance, but most candidates benefit from balanced preparation because Connecticut essays and the MBE test different skills. Essays reward deep analysis of Connecticut-specific law and thorough rule application, while the MBE tests quick recognition and efficient elimination. A tutor can review your practice test results to determine whether you're losing more points to essay weaknesses (unclear analysis, missing Connecticut rules) or MBE gaps (conceptual misunderstanding, timing issues), then create a customized study plan that allocates time proportionally to your needs.
Tutoring works best as a complement to bar prep, not a replacement. While bar prep courses provide broad coverage of national law and Connecticut-specific content, a tutor offers personalized diagnosis of your weak areas and targeted instruction on the Connecticut rules and essay techniques that generic bar prep can't fully address. Many students use bar prep for initial learning, then work with a tutor on practice essays, high-difficulty MBE questions, and Connecticut-specific topics where they're underperforming—creating a more efficient, focused study approach than either alone.
